Bella Napoli / Green Business Meeting 5-8-2018

I was present for a green business meeting hosted by BTG this Tuesday.
The focus was food waste and the ways to improve.

Bella Napoli is a family restaurant that thrives off of the threads of relationships it has weaved throughout the years.
Bella Napoli is more than a conversation or one plate of pasta. It is a moment we share together that gets us through the lesser days.

Behind these moments are the details of the work place. 
Making lists, ordering products, organizing, prepping, serving, and of course loving.

There is however more to our story, and that story continues in our trash bins.

As much as a passing smile can carry itself through the day, so too does our trash carry itself way beyond our bins.

Food waste is one of our beautiful problems. Sending food to the landfill creates methane.
Creating a conversation about composting the wasted, and donating the left overs is not only something we can benefit from as a family who cares about their home. It should be our honor to share the benefit of healthy compost for farmers and feeding homeless who seek a full stomach.
Everyday we work to make Bella Napoli a home away from home. With our excess resources we can spread that family love further than our backdoor.

The free recycle program offers
Consultation, consult summary, solutions and waste outlets. Space and bin management, training and education for employees.

To show people our efforts is room for bragging rights, and sharing our care can encourage others to do the same.

San Fransisco - LA Sweetgreen roadtrip 4-29-2018

Tuesday morning- April 24th I will be traveling with a Orion down the west coast with a final destination of Arizona. Orion works for a farm to table concept called SweetGreen. He builds personal relationships with the farmers to learn their system and values. We will be leaving San Francisco and visit farms throughout the west coast and the south states.  Orion and I begin on the road this morning towards a mushroom farm , high production high scaled. I want to focus on the education aspect of this but I can’t help pulling an emotional human experience with it. Orion and I visit Global Mushroom. Most everything is automated. Our guy Chris tells us that before they expanded he told the boss man about automation. Implementing this system into an old system doesn’t work. You can’t stop production to create a new way. You need to expand in to a new system as to make the old system obsolete.  The equipment mixes, weighs, drops the agricultural waste into wooden crat...

My Landscaping 5-8-2018

I have landscaped for over 10 years ranging from residential to commercial. I have worked heavy machinery to weeding of yards. I have worked in teams to plant thousands of mature plants, irrigation, 10 foot trees, weed barrier, mulch.  I have worked by myself, bare hands, leveling a foot of dirt,  loading/unloading trucks with hundreds of pounds of rock, dirt, mulch, plants. I am effective in my time. I am educated in what stays and what goes. I know the details in spacing, depth, light, water, nutrition. I not only plant with power, i plant with love. I personally speak to the flowers and the worms and I tell them thank you.  My belief is not in a perfect yard but a healthy yard. I believe in native plants and a couple of weeds, I support and specialize in butterfly gardens, rain gardens, and of course gardens. I love beautiscaping but I love even more educating on topics of soil health, native plants, and yards that support eco systems vs work against th...
